DR.. William NJ. Taylor tells that in
his early boyhood, after having heard
a sermon in which the preacher dwelt
much on "the appropriating act of
faith" he asked his father what was
meant by that expression. The old
man gave the same reply which had
been given him by his mother to the
same inquiry when he was a lad, VIZ ::

The buyers and sellers of market poultry and
eggs all understand why the prices of these arti-
cies of food vary in the conrse of year. Fresh
eggs bring twice as much in January as in July,
and the rrice Of dressed poultry rules lowest
during cold weather. In case plenty or
scarcity tends to make the price 60 up or down
in local markets; in tbs other, there is an addi-
tional cause of variation-dressed chickens are
readily transported long distances by rail during
the cold months and become plenty and cheap
in the large markets But when it comes to
fancy poultry. live and beautiful, buyers who
are only just beginning to feel the pulse of
prices are apt to be surprised. il not appalled,.

Well. it is q fact that the prices demanded for
frst-class fancy poultry seems to be very high
at first thought. and these prices continue about
the same the year through.
We can only sag. in reply to this question. that
